Description

A gtk.RecentAction represents a list of recently used files, which can be shown by widgets such as gtk.RecentChooserDialog or gtk.RecentChooserMenu.

To construct a submenu showing recently used files, use a gtk.RecentAction as the action for a <menuitem>. To construct a menu toolbutton showing the recently used files in the popup menu, use a gtk.RecentAction as the action for a <toolitem> element.

Constructor

gtk.RecentAction

    gtk.RecentAction(name, label, tooltip, stock_id)

`name` :	a unique name for the action
`label` :	the label displayed in menu items and on buttons, or `None`.
`tooltip` :	a tooltip for the action, or `None`.
`stock_id` :	the stock icon to display in widgets representing the action, or `None`.
Returns :	a new `gtk.RecentAction`

Note

Creates a new gtk.RecentAction object. To add the action to a gtk.ActionGroup and set the accelerator for the action, call gtk.ActionGroup.add_action_with_accel().

Methods

gtk.RecentAction.get_show_numbers

    def get_show_numbers()

Returns :

True if numbers should be shown.

Note

The get_show_numbers() method returns the value set by gtk.RecentAction.set_show_numbers().
